Winner of the 1995 Susan Smith Blackburn Prize

Winner of the 1995 Susan Smith Blackburn Prize. The first play ever commissioned by the internationally acclaimed Oregon Shakespeare Festival, EMMA'S CHILD is part of a planned trilogy. "…a tear-jerker in the best sense of the term. It is a play that deeply involves the audience with its principle protagonist, that brave little creature, and the adults that are indelibly changed for having been drawn into his orbit." —Ashland Gazette. "…absorbing, amusing and touching,…Thatcher keeps an intense, persistent focus on her idea: Life matters and the connection between lives matter." —Seattle Post Intelligencer.
